Most of the time people pull up next to me and the conversation goes like this,

"Hey guy, is that an STi?"

"Nope, just a little WRX"

"Oh right so its not even turbo (obvious lack of car knowledge), cos my Golf has 245 Hp i bet id have you (laughs to friends in car haha hehe)"

"Yeah its kinda slow for the money really (I chuckle to myself)"

(Que green light, 4 wheel chirp and 300+hp of Turbo spool and a small dot in the rear view that resembles a Golf)

The end.

I swear peoples car knowldge in Canada is terrible. At the end of the day everytime I get in my car it makes me smile, yes I would love an STi and one day im sure il have one but il have a lot of fun getting there.

Your above post resonated with me because I've been in that situation where they ask if my car is a STi (even though STi's come hatchback only) and I say no it's only a WRX - usually these are civic/integra/sentra owners tryin to do sr20det,k20 swaps LOL...

I read up on ALL cars and their potential just to know what I could possibly going against..Mods and all...

The setup was suppose to do 350hp @ 22psi easily. I only drove it for 2 months as my dad started a new job my mother made me sell it for this:

My dad didn't have a car @ the time so my tubro'd se-r was the only car in the house, my mother wanted my dad to have a car that he can drive. I'm all for my parents - this is why I have the WRX now (my dads AWESOME 860 CREDIT score )
